Tobacco Road (Live) - Lou Rawls[00:00:00]
Written by:John D. Loudermilk[00:00:01]
'Cause I was born in a dump[00:00:47]
My mama died and my daddy got drunk[00:00:52]
He left me here to die or grow[00:00:57]
In the middle of tobacco road[00:01:03]
I grew up in a rusty shack[00:01:10]
All I owned was hanging on my back[00:01:16]
The lord knows how I loathe[00:01:21]
This place called tobacco road[00:01:26]
But it's my home yes it is[00:01:32]
The only life I'll ever know[00:01:37]
And the lord knows I loathe[00:01:43]
Tobacco road yeah[00:01:48]
I'm gonna leave and get a job[00:01:54]
With the help and the grace from above[00:01:59]
Save my money and get rich I know[00:02:04]
And bring it back to tobacco road[00:02:09]
Yes I will[00:02:15]
Bring dynamite and a crane[00:02:17]
Blow it up and start all over again[00:02:22]
And I'll build a town[00:02:27]
I'll be proud to show[00:02:30]
And keep the name tobacco road[00:02:33]
'Cause it's my home yes it is[00:02:39]
The only life I'll ever know[00:02:44]
And despise you called[00:02:49]
You filthy but I love it[00:02:52]
But I love you[00:02:53]
Because you're my home[00:02:55]
I'm talking about tobacco road tobacco road[00:02:57]
Now you're dirty and you're filthy[00:03:04]
Tobacco road[00:03:06]
I'm gonna get me some dynamite[00:03:09]
And I'll bring me a crane[00:03:11]
And then blow it up[00:03:14]
I'll tear down and start[00:03:15]
Out all over again on that road[00:03:16]
On tobacco road tobacco road[00:03:21]
And I love you yeah[00:03:28]
Because you're my home[00:03:30]
Tobacco road[00:03:33]
Tobacco road[00:03:36]
Tobacco road road road road[00:03:38]
